Abstract: An implant for a spinal column is disclosed that is capable of being inserted into a patient in a first orientation having a reduced or minimum height and then rotated to a second orientation providing a second or maximum height, wherein in each orientation the height of the implant extends in a direction from one endplate toward the other endplate of adjacent vertebrae. The implant includes first and second side-by-side elongate members that are separately rotated from the first orientation to the second orientation after implantation. The first and second implant members are interconnected by a housing that maintains the first and second members in side-by-side relation.
